— In many applications of failure time data analysis, it is important to perform inferences about the median of the distribution function in situations of failure time data model...
We consider an architecture for a serverless distributed file system that does not assume mutual trust among the client computers. The system provides security, availability, and ...

Two important performance metrics in collaborative systems are local and remote response times. Previous analytical and simulation work has shown that these response times depend ...
We present a scalable algorithm for the parallel computation of inverted files for large text collections. The algorithm takes into account an environment of a high bandwidth netw...
